Volume Claim not working in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 3.11 when done via Web-Console

Issue

• We have a new Openshift 3.11 Cluster with local volume storage configured. When we create a Persistant Volume Claim using web-console it creates a claim as shown below. The problem is the claim remains pending forever. But when I'm adding storageClassName to the claim it works and correctly claims the volume.
